Singapore tightens precautions against measles from 1 April after 12 new cases
Singapore will implement enhanced public health measures for measles despite having no evidence of community spread. The move comes as 12 new cases were reported between February 1st and March 24th. From April, suspect cases must undergo mandatory testing. Those in high-risk settings such as childcare centres and healthcare facilities will not be allowed to return until they test negative for measles. Confirmed cases must also remain isolated until they are no longer infectious. We spoke to an expert on his thoughts about the potential risk of a large outbreak.
